There has been some interest in a module that would flash the front sidemarker with the turnsignal. The rear running/brake/turnsignal board I did for the 356 using the front turnsignal bucket from a 914 uses the same function to flash the running or brake light when the turnsignal comes on.
The flashing circuit was lifted from the 356 board and placed on this board with some modification. The board will be about 1.6in x 1in and will be enclosed in a small plastic box. The module will replace the wires which go from the front trunk into the rubber wire channel to the sidemarker and turnsignal. Basically the wires to the turnsignal and sidemarker will be pulled out of the rubber channel and connected to the module. The module will have wires that will be fished into the rubber channel and connected to the sidemarker and turnsignal just like the OEM wiring. The OEM wiring will remain intact keeping with my goal of no cutting/screwing/gluing plug-and-play installation. @Cairo94507 Attached thumbnail(s)

Of course I want a set. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif). Thank you Jerry for solving this problem. I am sure you have saved countless 914's from getting hit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

to clarify will this new board cause the sidemarkers to flash/blink simultaneous with the turn signal indication or alternate (off/on, on/off) like new LED circuits?

The sidemarkers will be powered by the turnsignal power so will be in sync with the turnsignals. |

Phil It should tuck in right behind the headlights. The box size should be about 1.75x1.0x0.5 inches. My 914 will be the test bed for installation. |

BTW looks like I f'ed up the schematic on the first boards. I'll be able to make them work with a couple of mods. 2nd version of the board is almost done.
Without the mods hitting the turnsignals may flash all the running lights on that side of the car. And turning the running lights would light all the turnsignals constant. Oops. |
